Robert's suggestions do indeed fix the problem here, but you need to  
be careful with the order in which you load things:

\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
\setmainfont{Palatino}

not

\setmainfont{Palatino}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}

You need to specify the remapping which will be applied when loading  
the font (the mapping=tex-text instruction) *before* actually loading  
the font itself (the \setmainfont instruction).
